    Dear Friends, I purchased a new PC few days back. Problem is that its "casing" is leaking current which can be felt while touching it. I tried both "three pin" and "two pin" cables and i am having problem with both. I also experienced same problem with my previous two PCs which both died due to motherboard failure. Many people told me that the problem is not with the casing, instead there is some problem with my power outlet which is not providing grounding I dont have qualified electricians at my location. Can any one tell me how can i ground my "power outlet "or my "computer casing". I would be extremely grateful if you can explain me or tell me about any good resource on internet which provides illustrations for grounding. Thanking you very much Imtiaz
